La Cienega Blvd. site acquisition builds on the company’s $75B+ development pipeline and delivery of substantial urbanization projects in US gateway cities (Los Angeles, December 29, 2020) Lendlease, a leading global real estate and investments company, in partnership with Aware Super, an Australian superannuation fund, announced today that it secured a 3.5-acre transit-oriented, mixed-use development site at 3401 S.

This project marks Lendlease’s, and the partnership’s, first development in LA and is further evidence of Lendlease’s specialized skill set in identifying attractive, market- advantageous development opportunities that are ripe for transformation and value conversion. The land was acquired for $92M and the project will have an estimated end value of $600M upon completion.
